Burn Fat and Build Muscle

It is a fact of life that our metabolism slows down as we age. Around mid Twenties, on an average a woman gains around 0.7 Kg > say a pound and a half. By the time, she is a half centurion, she may have added up additional – how much – say 20-30-40 pounds. A man slightly more or slightly less based on his own metabolism rate!

Now a deadly combination of :

Ø Hormone changes due to growing up

Ø Loss of muscle and build-up of fat due to lack of exercises and an undisciplined life style

Ø And stress due to family and work pressures

Conspire to reduce considerably our metabolism rate just as we aspire to soar it up.
So which mechanism / machination in our system will keep burning day-by-day accumulating fat?

There is no hard and fast metabolism rate for any individual. The optimum rate for an individual is the one which helps him reduce fat and build muscle. It may have to be tailor-made for each individual based on his/her life style. That means the CHANGE in life style is a MUST if the flab is building up! We need to fire on all our cylinders of a disciplined life style with diet control and mental, physical and spiritual exercises. To burn fat and build muscle!

The inescapable truth is that we can only achieve and sustain optimum metabolism when we eat, exercise, and live under an optimum emotional state. Our frame of mind directly impacts metabolism to such a degree that what we think and feel profoundly influences how we digest a meal. Metabolic power is not only about what you eat, but who you are when you're eating."…………..Marc David.
